Unpack the 4010 using the following information:
•
Carefully unpack the system and inspect for shipping damage.
•
Select a location for the control panel in a clean, dry, vibration-free area
with moderate temperature (see the "Environmental Specifications" section
in Chapter 1).
Before installing the 4010, read the following guidelines:
•
Install the FACP in a readily accessible area with sufficient room to easily
install and maintain the control panel.
•
Locate the top of the cabinet approximately five feet above the floor with
the door hinge on the left-hand side.
•
Count the number of conductors needed for all devices and cut the
appropriate knockouts. Pay careful attention to the routing for Power-
Limited and Non-Power Limited wiring. You must maintain a 1/4-inch
separation between these two types of wiring. All terminal connections
are Power-Limited except those to the AC power, Battery, and City
Circuit, and contacts when switching Non-Power Limited sources.
•
Review the precautions and warnings at the front of this publication.
•
All wiring must comply with the National and/or Local codes for fire alarm
systems. All wiring must test free of grounds.

Leave sufficient room for batteries in the bottom of the back box (see the
label inside the 4010 back box for more information).
